kimberkitSo I talked to my gyno, hoping to be able to skip some periods whilst on the Ring, and asked her to prescribe me more. But apparently she didn't need to prescribe me more.
Public service announcement: you can keep the Ring in for a full month, not remove it, and it is still effective against pregnancy, for all four weeks. So I can have 3 periods a year and it's still okay. Given that so much of my crazy cramping and moodiness is associated specifically with my period, this is pretty good news.

Date: 2008-07-24 07:58 pm (UTC)I know you disabled comments on your most recent entry, but I just wanted to say...according to all of my (older) coworkers (who have children), there is never a "convenient" time to have kids. So...yeah...take that for what you will, obviously it's always a very individual/family decision and you can't go by anyone else's advice and there probably are some times that are better to have kids than others and the reasons go on and on. Just that most people seem to feel like if you try to wait for the "perfect" time, it'll basically be decided by the "oh crap, soon I'm really going to be too old" reason, which could work out ok too, and does for a lot of people. But yeah. Anyway, ironic perhaps that i'm posting this comment on your entry about birth control, i suppose.
